Even worse when it's but 2 years after you WERE the dominate team, hosting a massive sporting event, and you fall to 4th place...barely...
Then the whole world turns a magnifying glass upon you, to remind you that you're not good enough, not clean enough, not rich enough, not stable enough.
Then, you watch some of your citizens get swept (or murdered...) out of the city into the jungle to make the touristas feel better about visiting.
Yeah, the citizens of Rio are probably really enjoying themselves right now, why would they boo anyone?
